Mini Round Robot Chassis Kit - 2WD with DC Motors
- SKU: ADA3216
Unleash your inner Mad Max and make your vehicle dreams a reality with the Mini Red Round Robot Chassis Kit.
This
kit gives you everything you need to build the shell of a 2-wheel-drive
Mobile Platform Robot! You get the metal plates that make up the
chassis, two DC drive motors with matching wheels, and a caster ball for
balance. You'll fill in the rest with a power supply, microcontroller
board, and motor controller. The differential drive (two separately
driven wheels) allows for a near zero turning radius while the
high-strength aluminum alloy body plus high-quality high-speed motors
make it suitable for flat indoor surfaces. Also it's adorably small!
We
of course have suggestions to run the motors like our TB6612 breakout,
Motor FeatherWing, Motor Shield for Arduino, or Motor HAT for Raspberry
Pi. Basically anything that can do two bi-directional brushed DC motors
at ~5V and 1.5 Amp peak. To steer the wheels, you'll need something to
toggle the motor driver like our Feather 32u4 Bluefruit LE, which we
used in our demo, and to power the robot/microcontroller we used a
Lithium Ion Battery - 3.7v 2000mAh, but this is all up to you and your
imagination!
Note: LiPoly Battery, Feather board, FeatherWings,
and Feather accessories are not included! This is just the body of the
mobile platform robot.
Kit includes:
2x Drive Motors (drive with 3-6VDC, 200-400 mA run, 1.5A hard stall)
2x Wheels
1x Plastic Caster Ball
Anodized aluminum frame and all mounting hardware for assembly
